渥太华清华大学校友会 Picnic 通知


TAAO (Tsinghua Alunima Association in Ottawa) will host a picnic on August 7 at Parc Du Lac Leamy to discuss children education issues. Our alumni, family members, and friends are welcome to join this picnic. A few of our alumni whose children have done exceptionally well (including this year’s Governor General’s Academic Award recipient) have been invited to lead the discussions.

The topics to be discussed may include:
2. Gifted program and how to get in
3. Private school, is it worth it?
4. After school program: Kumon
5. Ottawa high school rankings
6. How to go to a school that is not in your school boundary such as Lisgar?
7. Special programs and how to get in: i) Colonel By’s IB program; ii) Canterbury’s Arts program;
8. Going to an U.S. University, is it worth it?
9. Study materials
10. RESP
11. How to motivate children
12. Non academic: leadership training, debating, music, sport, etc.
13. Other

Parc Du Lac Leamy has a beach (life guard available for children swimming), playground, walking trail along the lake, boat rental, etc. Therefore, besides discussing children education issues, we hope this is also a chance for our alumni to get together and have fun.

Location: Parc Du Lac Leamy

How to get there:
a) From King Edward to pass the bridge to Hull

b) Just pass the bridge, exit at Boulevard Fournier (the first exit)

c) Keep on Boulevard Fournier. You will see a sign of Parc Du Lac Leamy on your right hand side. Keep going until you see another sign of Parc Du Lac Leamy on your left side. Make left turn at the traffic light. (You should see a big iron bridge in front of you at the traffic light. If you have passed the big iron bridge, you have gone too far.)

d) At the entrance, you will be asked to pay $5 parking fee per car. After you pay the fee, keep driving on the main road until you see the beach. There are a lot of parking spots there.

e) We’ll be at the right hand side of the picnic area (if you face the lake). There will be Tsinghua flag.

See you all at the picnic.

清华大学是中文还是英文学校？据我所知应是中文学校。为什么不用中文在中文网站发通知。不是因为清华人不懂中文吧。

浙大什么时候开校友会啊，我们用中文发通知。
